Amazon is having a Black Friday deal of 30% off one book (up to $10) through December 1st. I bought Manresa even though I just said two days ago I was going to pass on it for now.

just enter bookdeal in the promo box.

Had a glance through Manresa. I think there are lots of ideas in flavours and pairings that are applicable, even if the exact ingredients are not available; I suspect in many cases a straight high quality sub may be fine. Sure, I'm not going to be able to source Kid Goat easily, but another flavourful meat with a similar profile may well work. And it has lots of thought, etc. in it too.

Paul,

That was sort of my take as well. Let me know what you make!

Good choice, Becca. I made the Bouchons just today and they are soooo good. The only problem is that to do them authentically you need a Bouchon mold from W-S. I bought two of them with 20% off offers a while back b/c I make small bites sweets frequently and I'm glad I have them. And FWIW, the Oatmeal Raisin Cookie recipe in that book is absolutely the best I've ever had.

(And thanks for the heads up, Amy. I might just have to somehow make room on my cookbook shelf and squeeze in one more :D

Hmm. I don't even know what a Bouchon is yet. Lol.

I have a small popover pan which happens to work well for the bouchons (chocolate "corks" of brownie-like cake who knew?). I got the recipe off of the web. If you guys think that the book turns out to be worthwhile, maybe I'll pick it up.

It looks like the same shape as my baba au ruhm molds. I'm not sure how many ounces they hold.
